San Clemente BMW Repair

Welcome! We invite you to take a look around our site and learn a bit about us, and feel free to call or stop by any of our locations with any questions you may have!

Coast Motor Werk was started in 2005 as a BMW specialty shop in Huntington Beach. We wanted to provide an alternative to the BMW dealership – with better prices, more efficient and reliable repairs, and less hassle. We must have been onto something, because BMW owners started coming to CMW in droves – so much so that we have since opened shops in Irvine and Costa Mesa.

We are proud to be Orange County’s #1 BMW dealership alternative. Here are just a few of the things you can expect from a visit to CMW:

1. Immaculate facilities

This may not impress you at first…unless you’ve been at an auto shop and had to use the bathroom. Suddenly you find yourself in a dirty, smelly, dark room with a toilet, a sink (no soap), and damp paper towels. Gross!

At each of our Coast Motor Werk locations, we provide a comfortable lounge – beautifully decorated, super clean, appealing to all the senses. Sit and relax in what appears to be some nice person’s living room, sip on a cup of delicious coffee, and, should you have to use our restroom, you’ll be pleasantly surprised at what you find: an immaculate, decorated, lovely smelling restroom your mother would certainly approve of.

Another very important factor that contributes to the beauty of our facilities is the people. Our staff is warm, kind, and friendly – very knowledgeable and ready to assist you in an instant. You won’t find better service anywhere.

Considering how well we treat YOU, imagine how we treat your CAR!

2. Master Mechanics

At Coast Motor Werk, we don’t just hire anyone with greasy pants and a wrench. We hand-pick our mechanics for their knowledge and experience of BMWs, and their passion for them. And we don’t just love them – all our mechanics are Bimmer owners and enthusiasts just like you!

As we say, “Knowing BMWs is the key to effectively servicing them,” and it’s true. We make it our goal to know every nut and bolt in your car. As a result, with CMW you can expect quicker and more accurate diagnostics and better repairs, resulting in better performance and a longer lifespan for your Ultimate Driving Machine.

3. Our mechanics are paid salary.

That may seem like an odd statement to make, but let us tell you why that is SO crucial to the well-being of your car.

Most dealership employees are commission-based. This means that the more repairs they sell, the more money they make. In our experience, they are motivated to encourage – or even pressure – car owners to agree to costly repairs that are either premature, or not needed at all. They are also discouraged from working together as a team, as all the mechanics are competing for that next sale.

At CMW, all our mechanics are paid salary. We stress quality over quantity, only recommending repairs that are actually needed, but always respecting the customer’s wishes. You’ll never feel pressured by us. Our team is encouraged to collaborate on complex diagnostics and repairs, taking advantage of each other’s experiences and skill sets for the benefit of the customer and the longevity of your BMW.
